Your planet is being raided by Space Pirates and you have been tasked to meet them on the Desert of Pillars and destroy them all in your Gullwing Falcon over various levels. The game is a 3rd person shooter with you sat behind the Falcon, with Pillars and pirates coming towards you. You are able to control the speed of your craft and you must either fly between the Pillars for bonus points or avoid them. To clear a level you must shoot a certain amount of Pirates before a timer runs out and the number increases for every level. If you touch the Pillars, Pirates or run out of time then you lose one of four lives.
